My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. I did not know about Ms. Freda until today. Yesterday I was going to asked the lady at Walmart how she was doing. Now I know why she was on my mind. What a very fine lady and I enjoyed all my talks with her at the dentist for years. May your memories continue to reflect as each day goes by of the joy and smile of Ms. Freda. Blessings and Joy,

Please accept my sympathies for Ms. Freda's passing. She was a stalwart member of Cedar Grove Baptist Church and the neighborhood. She has left a gap in the fabric of our lives that will not be easily mended.
